same exact problem! we had to cut the bolt to get the LCA off the truck them melt the rubber bushing out and install a new one in its place. we tried a hydrolic pres,air tools,lube everythion with no sucess other than melting it out.

I was told that there is a recall on some of the lower control arms. You might want to look into it.

Well I wonder if the shop will hold off on installing the lift and order the part for cheaper than what the dealership wants... I need my truck back in 2 days but I am thinking spending another $70 for quickness might have to happen...

EDIT: Found this... includes bushing and ball joint... http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/s...Side,+Lower&tlc=Brakes,+Suspension+&+Steering

What are the specs on the bushing? Maybe Energy Suspension has bushings that will fit?

funny story, i bought a LCA from a auto wrecker for 50 bucks one day, i had it sitting in the garage. when we had to melt the old one out we just took the spare LCA and cut the bushing out very carefully and installed it in the LCA on the truck. the reason we couldnt just swap arms is because the spare arm was for the driver side and the arm with the bolt stuck in the bushing was for the passenger side. i couldnt wait for Nissan to order a bushing for me cuz i need my truck asap and the closest Nissan delear is sbout 150miles away.

Same issue I'm running into... I googled 2005 Nissan titan lower control arm and found like 3 website that sell replacement ones... Living in Salt Lake City there are 3 huge Nissan dealers so the suspension shop can have one instantly... Only problem is they want $212 for it while the Mevotech replacement online is $147 (no tax and free shipping)....

Main problem is I need my truck and want to drive it tomorrow so I'm thinking I'll have to eat the extra $70 and just get the dang lift put on... Oh well thanks Nissan and your lower control arm! On the plus side... TRU TRAC AND 4.10 GEARS AHH!!!! Should make the little 33's squeal!

I go to Energy Suspension and find complete bushing sets for lots of vehicles, yet virtually nothing for the Titan.

Furd gets lots of love: Energy Suspension 4.18125G Master Bushing Set

poor Titan gets only sway bar bushings: 141123 Front Sway Bar Bushing Kit - 34MM

I already emailed them. If everybody emails them and asks about bushings and transmission mount, maybe they will do something.

Make sure they put anti sieze on the new bolts into the LCa's so this doesnt happen again if u wanna remove the lift or something else.
